I use git submodule inside project, both submodule and module has configured detekt. Can i somehow pass baseline and config path depends on module, that detect check at the time?

Yes, you can just reference the file with

..

or so.

Hm, it should work if detekt configured for each separate module, but what if it configured for

allProjects

?

Sorry I’m not sure I follow you 🤔 Can you explain better what’s your setup?

I have next tree

project
|-lib
  |-git-submodule-with-own-detect-configuration
  	|-detekt-config-files
  	|-sample-app
	|-modulesFolder
	  |-module1
	  |-module2
	  |-etc
  |-detekt-config-files
  |-modulesFolder1
    |-module1
    |-module2
    |-etc
  |-modulesFolder2
    |-module1
    |-module2
    |-etc
  |-etc

detect-config-files is

baseline.xml

and

config.xml

. They stored in root project ang git-submodule-project with same relative path. Detekt configured in each of these projects in

allProjects

section of root

build.gradle.kts

like a:

fun Project.configureDetekt() {

    apply(plugin = Dependencies.Detekt.plugin)

    dependencies { detektPlugins(Dependencies.Detekt.detektFormatting) }

    configureEachTask<Detekt> {
        jvmTarget = Versions.jvmTarget
    }

    configure<DetektExtension> {
        toolVersion = Versions.detekt
        baseline = rootDirFile("config/detekt/baseline.xml")
        input.setFrom(
            "src/main/kotlin",
            "src/main/java",
            "src/commonMain/kotlin",
            "src/androidMain/kotlin",
            "src/iosMain/kotlin"
        )
        config = rootDirFiles("config/detekt/detekt.yml")
        parallel = true
        autoCorrect = true
        reports {
            xml {
                enabled = true
                destination = rootDirFile("build/report/detekt.xml")
            }
            txt {
                enabled = true
                destination = rootDirFile("build/report/detekt.txt")
            }
        }
    }
}

When i run detekt on root project with

./gradlew detekt

it use root project

build.gradle.kts

. And as

configure<DetektExtension>

configures for plugin, but not for each task. I am getting the situation when submodule modules checking with root project rules. I want to separate configs of root project and submodule project and somehow force to Detekt use concrete rules. It can be possible if

config

and

baseline

path can be modified from

configureEachTask<Detekt>

block. But in task

Detekt

both

config

and

baseline

properties declared as

val

so i cant just use something like 

../..

 in root 

build.gradle.kts

 but must specify it for each separate module

With Gradle you can always use

rootProject.files

and that will give you a path starting from the root project of your Gradle multi-project setup.

So. Now i don’t understand how it will help me to pass relative path to two different configs for different modules.

Sorry I don’t really understand what’s your question 🤔 I thought you wanted to share baseline and config between all of your modules, right? Seems like that’s not the case?

At this point i should sorry for my bad english )

Ok I understand. So that’s IMHO far from optimal 😕 Potentially you can use

allProjects{}

and do an

if-then-else

check inside for the project name. Not elegant, but is probably the best solution for you right now.

I was at this point at start of this conversation 🙂 Somehow it is not works. My configuration looks like

allprojects {

    .................

    configureDetekt()
}

And fun

fun Project.configureDetekt() {

    apply(plugin = Dependencies.Detekt.plugin)

    dependencies { detektPlugins(Dependencies.Detekt.detektFormatting) }

    configureEachTask<Detekt> {
        jvmTarget = Versions.jvmTarget
    }
    println("$name: ${rootProject.name}")
    configure<DetektExtension> {
        val isFromSubmodule = with(Dependencies.Modules.DesignSystem) {
            listOf(shared, switches, typography, buttons).contains(path)
        }
        val configRoot = if (isFromSubmodule) "lib/design-system" else "."
        toolVersion = Versions.detekt
        baseline = rootDirFile("$configRoot/config/detekt/baseline.xml")
        input.setFrom(
            "src/main/kotlin",
            "src/main/java",
            "src/commonMain/kotlin",
            "src/androidMain/kotlin",
            "src/iosMain/kotlin"
        )
        config = rootDirFiles("$configRoot/config/detekt/detekt.yml")
        parallel = true
        autoCorrect = true
        reports {
            xml {
                enabled = true
                destination = rootDirFile("build/report/detekt.xml")
            }
            txt {
                enabled = true
                destination = rootDirFile("build/report/detekt.txt")
            }
        }
    }
}

Here i assume that

configure

applied for each project and it is (i checked with

println

). But when i run

./gradlew detekt

i see detekt fails on submodule check, so i assume that detekt use base project config for submodule check

I’m unsure what’s going on but your problem is not related to Detekt but to Gradle. I actually suggest you don’t use

allProjects{}

and refactor your build logic a bit. Perhaps using a precompiled script plugin or just copy-n-pasting your build logic around.

Ok, anyway thanks a lot for the given time!

You’re welcome 🙏
